Parish Leaders

SmartLoving offers a range of resources that equip parishes with the task of marriage preparation and support for married couples.

It is our mission to arm couples with skills and insights so that they can become the effective agents of evangelisation to which they are called. All our resources are grounded in the wisdom of the Church, particularly the Theology of the Body, and focus on teaching couples practical skills to improve their relationships to provide a comprehensive formation experience.

“I am full of awe at what lays ahead. One thing that didn’t hit me until a little while ago was the fact that when we are married, I won’t have to do this alone but we’ll have prayer on my side and the power of the sacraments to help us grow in our union. It’s a very encouraging thought.”

“We’ve come out with a better understanding of who we are individually and where we want to go collectively as a married couple with actual plans. We’ve already implemented a few of the techniques we’ve learnt from the course.”

Maria & Lucio | Engaged Online Course

“It has given us much needed time and space to examine our marriage – what is working and what is not. We have now new tools and techniques to enrich our marriage. We are looking at each other anew through a positive and loving lens.”

Margaret & Ben | Marriage Seminar

“Doing this course reinvigorated dialogue between us. It gave us several exercises to try, and there were many insights that came out of the activities. It also moved us towards a re-invigorated prayer life. It allowed us to stop and think and reflect.”
